Your Donations at Work: Zimbabwe

Following a pilot project in 2013, we were able to establish routine fistula care services in Zimbabwe in conjunction with our long-term partner, Women and Health Alliance International (WAHA). Over the last year, 198 women received free, life-transforming repair surgeries at Parirenyatwa Hospital and Harare Central Hospital thanks to your support. These women also received psychological counseling, nutritional support and physical therapy, helping them to rebuild their health and confidence before they returned to their communities.This article was originally featured in our Fall 2015 newsletter.
